Mr. Hamblen. I do.
Mr. Liebeler. My name is Wesley J. Liebeler. I am an attorney on the President's Commission investigating the assassination of President Kennedy. I have been authorized to take your testimony by the Commission pursuant to authority granted to it by Executive Order 11130, dated November 29, 1963, and the joint resolution of Congress, No. 137. You are entitled under the rules of the Commission governing the taking of testimony of witnesses to have an attorney present, should you wish. I understand that you are present pursuant to a subpena that was served on you some days ago by the U.S. Secret Service, and I presume since you don't have an attorney with you at this time, you are prepared to proceed with your testimony without an attorney?
Mr. Hamblen. I don't need an attorney. You might wish to make a little correction. This should be C. A. Hamblen instead of C. R.
Mr. Liebeler. Your name is C. A. H-a-m-b-l-e-n?
Mr. Hamblen. That's right.
Mr. Liebeler. How old are you?
Mr. Hamblen. I will be 50 in December.
Mr. Liebeler. You are employed by the Western Union Telegraph Co.; isn't that right?
Mr. Hamblen. Yes.
Mr. Liebeler. How long have you worked for them?
